FOUNDED IN 1986 by JC Carlson,
the USS Wainwright Veterans Association is a 501(c) 3 non-profit association of men who served aboard any of the three USS Wainwright ships. This web site is dedicated to those sailors.

Our association exists to keep alive the memory of all vessels named Wainwright.

We need everyone’s assistance, via membership and dues payments, to achieve that goal by supporting our museum trailer as well as participation in regional veterans’ recognition events and attending the bi-annual reunions.
